Paris changed me. I wasn’t talking about the city, I was referring to Paris Jean Kelly. From the first time we held hands on the school bus to our first kiss, we’d been moving toward one thing, the day I’d ask her to be mine. How was I to know that she thought friends couldn’t be lovers? Well…I’m going to prove her wrong. When her world turns upside down…I’ll be there. When she’s feeling lost…I’ll be there. After all, it’s not about the spark or the fire…It’s all about the slow burn.

The sexy sheriff has decided that he wants more than a one night stand. And her employees believe that she has no business running a ranch. Sometimes the strongest cowboys aren’t boys....

Howard Norman’s The Bird Artist, the first book of his Canadian trilogy, begins in 1911. Its narrator, Fabian Vas, is a bird artist: he draws and paints the birds of Witless Bay, his remote Newfoundland coastal village home.
